    On having a super-niched website: "People are like, 'it's so limiting.' Do you know what's not limiting? My income. That has opened the world to me." Just like your awesome courses, this is so inspiring! Thank you, Shelley and Jared. What a great interview.

    So I signed up for her free training. Great content it's better than paid courses. She is clearly the real deal. It's clear to me her principles have made her successful. It has become evident to me that all successful entrepreneurs live by principles.

    Quick question. It looks like the blogging 101 course checkout page links do not work. I get an error somehow. Can you please verify this? Thanks!

    Nicee, love this channel, showing me all the stuff I need. Specifically for travel blogging, I've basically been traveling for 12 years. I think for travel blogging and email, maybe if your focussed on a specific city, target expats as well as there's an overlap between tourist and expats, generally wanting to know many of the same stuff

    You guys need to change the YT thumbnail, it says $52k in 1 yr, not $52k in one month (she made $52k in December, per your blog article)

    A question to include for travel blogger would be how they would get the images

    I agree with the hidden keywords! Sometimes there are real gems in there. Some of them aren't though :P The lowest traffic I got on a "0 volume" keyword is actually 70 Views per month.

    Would definitely like more info about how she is sourcing the images for her blog posts without violating either an affiliate agreement or copyright. It seems a bit “don’t ask, don’t tell” to me.

    • @KrabiAdventure
      @KrabiAdventure ปีที่แล้ว

      I also wondered. Is it ok to just repost sometthing on Instagram or Facebook and credit the author? Or, does she contact them first for permission and get that in writing? Or?

    • @boundlessroads
      @boundlessroads ปีที่แล้ว

      She speaks about that in a quick video on her FB group.

    • @destinationunknownfamily
      @destinationunknownfamily 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      She does link back and give credit to her images in the photo caption.

  • @PauleneCalinawan

    Finished the video, I don't think she mentioned which hosting she transferred and theme she changed to get the booost. Did I miss anything?

    • @PauleneCalinawan
      @PauleneCalinawan ปีที่แล้ว

      Did I spy correctly? Was the new theme Kadence and new host 20i?

    • @markuserikssen
      @markuserikssen ปีที่แล้ว

      Not sure about the host, but theme is indeed Kadence.

    Not knowing what you're doing or why you're successful makes it extremely difficult to repeat.. I feel like that's a really terrible thing to ignore.. and having 100+ posts with a vast majority of the content and revenue coming from 5-10 posts alone is terrifying for long term stability.. I feel nervous for her to be honest. Super rad that she's built what she's built so far, but she really needs to dig in and figure out what led to the success so she can repeat it

    Is there a place where I can get help with affiliate marketing? Like someone who can do it for me or show me how to do it properly? I have a site with 80k visitors per month. Only getting 2-400 dollars per month in ad revenue. I think I need help. :D
